Mindful Me (for 2nd & 3rd graders)-Topic: AFFIRMATIONS

MMPL has partnered with the NDSU extension- Morton County Agent, Cassie Allerdings/ Family and Community Wellness agent to offer Mindful Me. This program promotes mindful practices that lead to improvements in managing one’s own goals, developing a sense of self, time management, stress management, emotional regulation, and mindful eating practices. Specific outcomes from youth participation in the curriculum include short-term (skill development and knowledge gain), mid-term (increased stress management, mindful eating, etc.), and long-term (improved physical, emotional, and social health) benefits.

Parents are expected to remain on library premises during the duration of the lesson, according to library policy.

The classes are separate from one another, thus each class is considered an independent class and you must register for each one if interested.

The topics covered:

Oct. 1- Mindfulness and Affirmations

Oct. 8th- Being Present

Oct. 15- Describing emotions
